After an alarming rise in crashes impacting students walking to school, Las Vegas Valley officials urgently needed to improve school zone safety. 🚸 But with 378 schools in their district, traditional traffic studies could take months, leaving kids at risk while the county gathered the critical data to inform effective countermeasures.   Read our new case study to see how the Clark County Office of Traffic Safety used StreetLight to save months on data collection and quickly identify interventions that could save lives: https://lnkd.in/g65hMb57 #SchoolZoneSafety #TransportationSafety #PedestrianSafety #LasVegas #LasVegasValley #TrafficSafety #TransportationPlanning #TrafficOperations

Missouri has the sixth largest state roadway network in the U.S., making statewide data collection an enormous task. So when Missouri Department of Transportation planners needed to analyze traffic patterns to ensure safe lane closures, bridge demolitions, and interchange designs for their Improve I-70 program, existing data collection methods alone weren't enough.   Watch how MoDOT filled data gaps to plan safer road work and interchanges along the entire corridor, keeping staff and travelers out of harm's way. #highways #ImproveI70 #RoadSafety #RoadConstruction #RoadWork #interstates #WorkZoneSafety #TransportationPlanning #TrafficOperations

Vehicle speed is a critical metric for transportation experts looking to understand road safety, traffic congestion, any many other factors impacting mobility and infrastructure planning. ⏩ But there's more than one way to find out how fast cars are going, and getting reliable measurements is key to making the right decisions — sometimes even life-saving ones. To see how reliable StreetLight's speed metrics are, we compared them to publically available data from New York City's OpenData portal, provided by New York City Department of Transportation. See what we found, and learn how you can make sure you're getting reliable speed data: https://lnkd.in/gqfFZDjw #RoadSafety #TrafficSafety #Transportation #TransportationPlanning #TrafficOperations #PedestrianSafety #BikeSafety #Mobility #VisionZero #NationalSafetyMonth
